Day 49: Watered the plants 0.5L with nuts, 4L total, 840 ppm, 1785 us/cm, PH 6.5 Day 52: Watered the plants 0.5L with nuts, 4L total, 727 ppm, 1551 us/cm, PH 6.5 Day 54: Watered the plants 0.5L with nuts, 4L total, 869 ppm, 1848 us/cm, PH 6.4

Las plantas están en plena floración , con un leve amarillamiento en la mayoría de las hojas , creo que es exeso de intensidad lumínica o el ultravioleta debe estar afectando , en fin , el crecimiento no se ha visto comprometido y las plantas están comenzando a emanar un olor fuerte dulce , muy dulce con toques de golosina de manzana a mi parecer, vigor increíble de la cepa desde la germinación hasta ahora.

These sticky ladies respond very well the scrog and the canopy i nice and level overall and look very pretty we entered the first week of flowering and a few changes will be made to the nutrients for next weeks update Cheers and have a great weekend

Day 44- I need to back off on the water nutes, I am forgetting the soil is strong enough. I will flush with plain water next time. Maybe I should do a plain water foliar feed? I’m still learning. But I think those B vitamins are keeping their metabolism high! Then I feel the need to spoon feed. After giving them much needed calcium, I start adding other things. Those Epsom Salts plus the amino acids on a plant with high metabolism receiving more B1, all while having lots of amended neem cake in the media, is going to be processing a sh*t load of nitrogen! Back to plain water. Another idea, maybe I will flush a little bit, and feed just CalMag. Day 48 I realized I haven’t gotten any pictures in for this week! Not that big of a mistake compared to the one I just corrected! The video is taken when they are back inside for the night as it a cold windy night, and they could use more light. I am not talking because I am sick and can’t talk to well. But it’s just quickly showing how they look after the whole ordeal I am about to mention. So I woke up this morning, and noticed all of the plants were showing subtle signs of a deficiency. Different deficiencies too! Some are going on the calcium deficiency, others potassium, some manganese even maybe a few others to be honest. Sometimes I could only see signs in the old leaves, and other times I would see signs in new leaves. Either way “most” of them were looking pretty good. But something about all this variability with different plants was oddly unsettling to me. I figured I had better stick the soil pH meter in there and make sure it’s not a pH issue. And to my horror, pH of barely 4.5!! More like 4.20! But honestly it was that low!!!! A miracle these plants haven’t locked out yet! But how did this happen? Yes it is all coming together for me. Every water I have been giving feed-water. I have been watering with a little runoff, but not enough runoff to manage what I was putting in! I’ve been “feed-watering” a lot more than usual because the pots are tiny and it’s super hot and mega dry during the days. Like 75-80 degrees (F) and 10-25% relative humidity lately. So no wonder they are drying out fast. All those salts left behind from last feed. So they built up, apparently pretty high. I didn’t think I was feeding too much, especially because I would get a descent amount to drain out the bottoms every time. Either way, I fed too heavy and flushed too little! So I brought out the foxfarm SLEDGEHAMMER!!!!! Did a quick flush, flushed with plain water to get the sledgehammer out, then a recheck on the soil pH meter. Comes out 6.8! So I gave feed-water at ph of 7 afterwords. They were dry enough before all of this, I conveniently avoided damping issues. Now they will dry out and receive plain pH 7 RO water on next watering. I still have lots of doubt as if I have any clue what I am doing! But so far so good. I try to support the microbes as much as possible, i definitely could use their support. And it might be because of the microbes, CalMag and fulvic acid, that has prevented lockout. But yeah the fact the pH in the soil was corrected with a flush, gives me a peace of mind. The other three from “The Hondo Titan” diary had high levels of sulfur to lime, the flush did not fix, so I repotted them in new soil with pH 7. Also those hydroton expanded clay pebbles become rich with acidic salts, because the water leaves and all the nutes and minerals are captured and stored with the pebbles. Good in small levels. But if the pot dries out every day, those pebbles will eventually make the pH meter smack the end suggesting less than pH of 3.5!!!!!!!! But no pebbles were used on these girls thankfully!!

My oh my, what a difference a week and a dimmed down light can make! I expected to have to have it covered for longer period than I actually did as well. I don’t know what there is to say really, you can see I have repotted into the Autopot XL so it is probably the smallest Autopot XL grow there is! I was super careful to actually cut the paper pot it was in away as I didn’t want the auto to think that was the bottom of the pot and start flowering. I simply prepped what it was going into and wetted it and ripped it off then buried it - it was a little leggy from the windowsill action so I sorted that. Somehow the dimmer that was broken is no longer broken so that’s cool - its on about a third of the total of what’s it can put out atm. Honestly, I thought this plant was going to die before! It still might but it looks a fuck load better now than it did! I am going to have to start mixing up some hydrocrop notes as it’s what I have on hand. I’ve always had great results with it before so why not. I am back in touch with FastBuds and they have sent me some more seeds so hopefully next run I’ll be doing something a bit newer as they seem to always be pushing that THC value! So far, so good - now to have a look at other smoothie auto diaries too see what stresses she can handle in terms of training. Edit: it’s been a couple of days since my last update but I needed to add a small reservoir for the Autopot XL to run from so I nominated a 5l plastic jug. Only after drilling the hole for the Autopot filter and plug I realised I needed to get to the inside of it so I cut away the section that was the lid so I can still use the handle and it has structural integrity. Everything seems to have gone swimmingly but the jury is still out on whether a 5l bottle will be enough for 1 plant - I can’t remember how thirsty the smoothie one was from before. It’s a resilient plant though - it recovered so quickly from germing on the windowsill. The tent is pretty sketchy because i had to cut down the poles to make it fit the space and so the skin is a bit saggy. Still, she seems to be thriving - the light is on about 50% (75w) and before I connected up the ‘res’ today I was just spraying a very small amount of water that had mammoth p added to it after it had been PH’d to 5.5 ish. I did intend to go with grow dots but unfortunately they have taken too long to come now - its in its final pot and im not messing around with slow release now we are coming into veg, they would surely be behind schedule. I have been using the trusty Hydrosol by Hydrocrop - its cheap as chips and has a cannabis specific feed chart that has never let me down. I was using GHE before and this is like 10x cheaper and i get the same results. Once you have worked out your concentration and diluted the powder into bottles it is very similar to any other rip off, cannabis specific bottle feeds, only you get enough powder to make 5 bottles worth of each so it works out super cheap, you dont need to mess around with silica, it literally has everything the plant needs so no PK boost either, you simply adjust the ratio of bottle A to bottle B and it boosts the PK and lowers the N. It also has enough calcium and magnesium - although they do sell a cal mag but they specify it is specifically for buffering coco - fair enough. I’ve never had any luck doing that and my plants always die using that bricked coco that I have buffered myself but that’s just me - my mushrooms love it though and I dont have to do shit to it either!

Aparecieron unas pequeñas manchitas en las hojas más viejas, se realizó el trasplante a maceta de 5 lts y se regaron foliarmente con Knactive por estas hojas amarillas que comenzaron a salir y para que tomaran de buena manera el trasplante. Seguimos ... Pronto se viene la floración

- I didn't weight wet buds. - The trichomes photos have been taken just before the harvest on buds all over the plant. - First time I see and have pink trichomes, they are beautiful! - The hash ball was a little less than 1cm diameter and was really good :) - Drying was made at 20°C and around 50% of humidity. - Humidity in jar between 60 and 65% on the first day, temperature around 20°C. Veg time : 56 days. Flowering time : 63 days. Total time from seed to harvest : 119 days. Height : 81cm Pot size : 26l

July 7th makes week 11 for these ladies. They were supposed to have been harvested this week but we're a ways away from that. We have a bit of maturation and swelling to do yet. Maybe I stalled them, could be genetics, could be a combination of both? We'll see. I'm just happy they look as good as they do and to have had the helpful growmies I've had here giving me tips and help along the way. Thank you!

Beginning of week... Just trying to keep her happy till harvest.. The runoff pH keeps coming out at 6.5 pH when I'm mixing my nutes at 6.0 - 5.8 pH.. So today I watered (no nutes) at 5.6 and it came out at 6.3.. Lol.. Finally.. Took like a whole week to get it down that much.. But I guess we shall see tomorrow if it stays down. Not seeing any issues other that the heat really... Next day.. Mixed nutes at 6.0 today and the runoff came out at 6.5 again 🤷🤷🤷... Story of my life. Gonna keep trying I guess.. Can't water with too low of pH.. Mid week.. Damn pH man.. Yesterday I watered at 5.5 (on accident.. Didnt mean to bring it down that low.. But I said fuck it and went with it).. Runoff came out at 6.3.. Ok.. so maybe I'll water today at 5.8 pH and just slowly bring it back up to 6.2 or 6.3.. That range.. But today, going in at 5.8.. The runoff still came out at 6.5.. I give up.. Just gonna wing it till harvest.. The heat has also destroyed the leaves a bit.. All the top fan leaves feel like shit.. Crispy as all fuck.. Taco'd.. Ugh.. I'm pretty sure she has some light burn in all of this too.. Buds are still goin strong tho.. Hell, these colas don't even need to swell much.. I'm happy with the size of them already! This new light is just taking some time for me to dial it all in.. Right now it's at about 50% power, 12 inches above the canopy. It was running at 75%.. I'm returning my LUX meter because it's reading ALOT lower numbers than what I'm seeing on GrowWeedEasy dot com.. Gonna order the one she uses.. But damn these are gonna be some fat colas when this girlie is done.. One more week of feeding after this week and then I'm gonna pull out the FloraKleen! Can't wait to get this girl hung and start a new project! End of week.. Runoff pH is still a little screwy.. Light burn isn't TOO too bad.. But it is a little bad.. And the heat stress.. Ugh.. But I got a new LUX Meter and it should help me get things dialed in with this light.. But even after those 3 fucked up things.. She is still producing some super fat and very sweet colas.. Jeez.. Incredible... On to the next...

Beautiful flower full of trichomes. Smell and test fantastic. Very fast flowering. She was done on day 49 but I cut her down few days later. I love the strain, the only thing that I will like this strain to have is a better yield. Beast quality buds I ever grew.

I lost almost all my photos on my phone due to my storage being full so I don't have any of my harvest photos but I will try growing this strain again outdoor next year but I'll make sure to start my IPM before I have big issues next season 😅 I would recommend anybody to try growing some gps gg4 s1 the plant was started in late February and wasn't harvested until almost Halloween (Oct 24th) so all in all she did well,zero seeds and I stressed this plant to the max during early veg,late veg and early flowering so definitely has amazing stress resistance

Hey Cannafam, Well in life sometimes you have to perservere to get something you really want, this was my 3rd attempt at growing this gal, with the previous 2 runs being wrecked by the UK weather. This has been a stressful grow as i thought this one was going to end in tears also, but I Made It and im super happy 😁💜💜💜 She came down a few days ago after more bad weather, a thunderstorm yesterday and its currrently raining as i write this, although i wanted her to run a little longer, it wasnt worth the risk and she should still give a nice heavy stone and is mature enough. She was quite a task to harvest and ive gone for a wet trim, a high leaf to calyx ratio on the buds and it took just under two hours! Wet weight is 111 grams although i expect this to reduce to around a third in the drying process and i've been left with a nice large bag of trim which will be sampled in the bong shortly 😊 Those beautiful dark purples are now on the drying rack indoors under the carbon filter on maximum to contain the smell of roudy gorgeous berries and its been a few days before i could open the tent,without it taking over the house! Ive got a dehmidifier running which has been set to keep RH at 58% and shes got about another week until dry. Once complete she'll be jarred with the 62% boveda humidy packs and burped daily on a four week cure. Il update once dry and cured a bit with more pics and a smoke report. Until then thank you to anyone following and your support,likes and comments 💜💜💜 Stay safe and remember the Sun always shines in Space 😊✌️ ********** Update ********** Hey Friends, So my purple lady is now dry and has been curing for a little while, i pulled 32grams off her so just over an Oz which im really pleased with considering the issues with pests early on in the grow and the bad weather in late flower. I've also got quite a decent size jar of trim which will be slowly bonged and mixed with various hash 😁 . This strain is one of my favorites and im so glad i tried again with her outside. I feel like this strain is a bit of hidden gem in the FastBuds catalogue but i would recommend growing her too anyone as she is definitely a purple jewel 😊 Thank you to all that liked or commented, I hope you've enjoyed this diary and love to all 💜💜💜

Forgot to defoliate whole way through so lost a lot of yield

Been real busy missed a week or two but here she is looking lovely smells good did a heavy defoliation...buds nice and fat about to start flush in about a week or so

This week, there started to be pistals forming on the largest plant, the medium plant and just starting on the smallest. I have added some nutrients from big buds, but I need some bloom first. ordered advanced nutrients. I trimmed off the lower leaves below the canopy to push them more into blooming. This is auto, so I have not adjusted lighting still 18/6

11/10 Week 7 Coloring is deepening, hairs stand straight no ambering, leaves are beginning to fade so meh couple of weeks maybe? 11/14 Feeding day 1 gal at 6.5PH with 5ml Cal Mag , 5ml Bio-Bloom, 5ml Fish Sh!t

Solid start for this week also, nothing to complain about the growth. I'm doing just some LST to increase branches strenght to support bigger buds. Day 38, tied down some branches to create an even canopy and strenghten stems

This week has been time to put on weight!! They are getting so heavy glad put in secondary scrog net. Have only been doing water so plants can just pull what they want our the soil they are starting to fade on their own. They have some amazing kinda blue tent to the buds. They have a gassy sweet smell to them! This will be the last week I feel but still see some clear heads and no amber so shall see over next week!!

Made some defolation, also got rid of some lower buds
